4 types of hail nets and differences
Hail Netting is an extruded, cut, stretched and woven high density polyethylene material.
This resilient and highly UV stabilized netting protects your crops or garden from hail damage, leading to higher yields and healthier plants.
Also helps to protect crops from birds while still allowing plenty of sunlight through.
What is Hail Netting?
Hail Netting is an extruded, cut, stretched and woven high density polyethylene material. Hail Netting has many of the advantages of HDPE material.
- It is light weight and durable.
- It provides good stretch and shading without putting excessive weight and stress on the supporting structure.
- Hail Netting has significant economic benefits, is efficient, simple, safe and fast.
- Our hail screens have high tensile strength and can resist hail damage.
With the help of our calibrated and tested instruments, we can produce a variety of hail nets, some of which have excellent tensile strength and breakage resistance to resist hail of any strength, ensuring the safety of your crops. Sudden hailstorms can harm plants and the fruits of our labor. With the protection of hail nets, you can create a comfortable environment for people or plants.

4 types and differences of hail nets
There are many different types of hail nets available to protect against weather hazards. Hail netting is used for plants to protect them from weather hazards. It can maintain yields and increase harvests while providing some shade. Improves the growth rate and quality of the crop.
The weaving technique used for our hail screens is cross braiding, which prevents the silk strands from falling apart and mold build-up due to cutting. Also, the edges of the hail screen are reinforced with angles to ensure durability during installation and use. The reinforced edges can also withstand greater tension and can provide stronger support for the installation of hail screens. This design significantly increases the usability of the hail screen, allowing it to span greater support distances while being stronger and more durable.
OEM custom hail nets are also available, and we can cut and edge reinforce the original hail netting to customer specifications. Regularly set rings make it easier to install hail netting. Or, you can choose to pre-set locking rings on the woven edges, a design that is also one of our innovations.
4 beneficial effects of hail nets on crop growth
Hail nets serve as a form of protection against hail, a form of protection against outside hail, and four other roles. Hail nets also play an important role in helping plants grow when hail does not occur. This is the reason why many farmers like hail nets so much.
Here are four effects for your reference.
- Hail nets can prevent insects.
There will be a lot of experience after using hail nets in orchards, which reduces orchard pests. Many fruit ripening fruit is the most terrible pest infestation.
The occurrence of pests can affect the yield and quality of the fruit. The heavy use of pesticides in orchards can lead to an enrichment of harmful ingredients. This poses a serious threat to the environment, as well as a potential health hazard to consumers. It also increases labor costs, and excessive use of pesticides increases the resistance of pests, trapping them in a vicious circle.
Therefore, physical methods become the best choice. Hail nets also have a protective effect on pests. Small mesh hail nets can protect orchards from pests. Especially for moth pests, these nets stop the movement of moths and create spatial isolation, reducing the range of moths and the success of mating between moths. It stops moths from laying eggs and fundamentally inhibits the reproduction and spread of moths.
Many studies have shown that the use of hail nets significantly reduces the number of pests, mainly fruit flies, Halyomorpha halys (Stål) and Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura). In addition, Halyomorpha halys reduced damage to drainage in 62% of fruits compared to fruits with pesticides. At the same time, the hail network reduced the incidence of bitter apple pits by 52%. Fruit quality is not affected in any way. Irene Baiamonte’s research showed that the use of post-vine parvum hail nets in an apple orchard reduced infections in the apple orchard. These can be used effectively to reduce pesticide orchards.
- Hail nets can provide shade.
Hail nets can provide proper shade and protect the fruit from sunburn.
Plants have different needs for sunlight in their production stages, and at some stages, too much sunlight can harm the plants. It has been found that in Washington State, 10% of apple fruit is sunburned each year, resulting in very high industry losses.
Hail shade nets can reduce the incidence of sunburn by 12.1% and hail shade nets can affect plants by as much as 12-22%.
Hail nets can provide better light conditions for apple trees and grapes, which has a very significant effect.
- Hail nets can reduce evaporation, increase water and efficiency.
Hail nets improve the efficiency of water use and reduce water evaporation. Thanks to the sun and wind hail nets.
Improving water use efficiency means lower water consumption and longer irrigation cycles. This reduces the cost of water use and is more efficient.
4、Windproof effect hail net.
Hail nets can block the wind and create a wind barrier for fruit trees. Wind can cause fruit to fall off the tree and twist it. Hail netting reduces the wind speed and reduces the risk caused by high wind. At the same time, the relatively stable environment can reduce shaking the fruit and avoid fruit scratches and bruises.
Hail nets can protect fruit trees from the wind and increase the yield and quality of fruit.
Conclusion
As a direct manufacturer of hail nets, we sell our nets to over 70 countries and regions worldwide. Many distributors in Europe and the United States sell our hail screens. These hail screens are used on farms, homes and commercial premises. They are also used in a growing number of areas such as decks, garages, car coverings, etc. Our hail screens have also been developed through years of technological development and a very large variety has been added. For example, traditional hail netting, windproof hail netting, quadrangular hail netting, triangular hail netting, hail netting for construction, etc.
